Very smooth, precise, and beautiful. The best that I’ve used in 62 years of playing classical guitar. Buy a set. You will be impressed.
Nice feel and sound
The little time and planning it takes to set this up is well worth the effort! Once placed properly, it’s a custom fit support every time you use it. I only wish I’d had this sooner. Very sturdy. I love that it tilts front to back so I can lean the guitar towards me without affecting the placement of the support. Awesome that it folds to fit right in my guitar case without changing the adjustment. If I could buy it again I’d spend the extra money for the upgraded wood version. It’s a well-designed, beautiful piece of equipment that will last.
Perfect capo for barring in tune on nylon strings. Finely adjusts to just enough pressure for clean notes without intonation issues.
Recommended for good posture while playing the guitar. The service was excellent.
Articulate, very well balaced strings. Break in time is very quick too.
I like a string that fights back a little on my clasical guitar..these were perfect on my fine gut string from Spain..great delivery also...thanks!
I recently purchased a Oscar Munoz classical 🎸 with spruce top and rosewood back & sides. Beautiful wood, great build quality. I haven’t got to play it much yet but so far it sounds great. Good projection and clear notes.
Great strings and a fair price.
I like that it is small, folds out of the way and comfortable to use. 3 suction cups work fine. I am 6' tall with a 32" inseam, a little more torso then leg. In the chair I typically use to practice the set up works best when I put my left floor on a 2.5" thick book. Conclusion, I'm happy with it, but will likely find an alternative that is height adjustable too.
I thought these were perhaps a frivolous upgrade to my Córdoba Stage but they are completely worth it. They were easy to install and just needed a little lubrication to operate completely smoothly. The materials are exquisite.
Just what I needed for my Jose Ramirez studio flamenco guitar.
XGuitars service excellent as usual
Excellent service at Xgiutars. Geoff explained to me difrences between different wood materials used to craft guitars. So I decided to get the Alahambra 9P CW E8 what a beautiful guitar. I am not musician or guitar expert but I love this gitar very easy to play and that specific sound. Guitar is an artwork at all details. I have few friends they played guitars for long time and I hear nothing but compliments. I also have Cordoba45 but I love the Alhambra soft sound. I just want to thank Geoff to convince me about this guitar that I am not making a mistake. Thanks Geoff. With best regards. Andy
Great feel. Good response
Hermosa, named in honor of her maker, Herman Hauser, loves her new case/condo/house,where she can rest in perfect relative humidity thanks to the male/female seal and cushioning.
Thanks Geoff for the great service and help.!
Purchased for a guitar that has sentimental value. Like buying jewelry for a person you love 😊.
These running machines impressed me for the quality of materials and actions . Would love to see if they have a model with bearings . Thank you Xguitars!
Really wonderful Shop to buy from. Quick and attentive to service.
The Woodside Guitar Support is the best support I’ve tried. Using a foot stool kills my back, but the other supports I’ve tried, Neckup, Sageworks, and a couple of others fail at some point. And always at the wrong time.
I like this enough that I’m getting 2 more so that when I perform I can do so seamlessly. But at home, it’s so easy to adjust I only need one out.
I have several guitars with matte or satin finishes and this support is the perfect answer.
Take your time with the manual, take your time setting it up on your guitar and you will be rewarded with an infinitely consistent playing position. And that makes playing the guitar easier and more rewarding. Kudos.
This is a terrific design and build. It works wonderfully. And though hough the felt tends to slip it’s an easy fix using something a little grippy beneath it.
I don’t play classical so the height/angle as designed was too much for me and exacerbated an arthritic issue of having no cartilage beneath my thumb. I had to have the neck cut down and rethreaded. There is plenty of pivot from the ball joint so if you are an acoustic player you can move freely. I’ve had 2days practice and no major issue.
As an acoustic player the guitar is in a much more natural position as it sits now in its shortened form. The designer could have a few short neck versions as an option. It might open a few more sales.
I wrote the personal stuff in case it helps someone. This lift itself, though? 5stars.
Glad to be able to buy original Alhambra equipment.
No hiccups ordering from XGuitars, would definitely recommend.
explosive, brilliant 👏 and
an epiphany of creative and
subtle warm demure tones
emanate with a sweet language
that only these strings can produce.
